McNeil River State Game Sanctuary
About this site
McNeil River is a remote, low impact camping experience. You should have complete camping gear and come prepared to be self sufficient as there are no accommodations available. The ADF&G does provide some support facilities at the site. Campsites: There are 14 gravel pad campsites within the McNeil River camp. These are clustered in the campground area near the Cook Cabin. Cook Cabin: There is an approximately 16' x 24' (5m x 7.5m) public use cook cabin at the McNeil campground. All food and scented items (toothpaste, lotions, etc.) are stored in the cook cabin. Staff Facilities: Two staff cabins and a combination tool shed / cabin exist on the site to provide staff with office space, living quarters and camp maintenance equipment during their 3 month stay at McNeil. Additional Info: The site features a sauna and two outhouses. Weather is typical of coastal Alaska Peninsula and can vary from clear with temperatures in the 50s-60s°F. The campgrounds are gravel and can be windy. More than 70 bears have been spotted here, with nearly 150 brown bears frequenting the area throughout the summer, gathering at nearby falls to fish for salmon.
